How can i add postal code prefix text in the address format in civicrm.

There is the checkbox for postal code suffix in civicrm, but there isn't anything like prefix for postal code

Thanks.

There is not really a field for a postcode prefix, but what you can do is move the postcode suffix to the front of your address format? You can do this with Administer/Localisation/Address formats I think....

no , that does not work(moving postal code suffix before postal code).

there is no token available for the postal code suffix in the dispaly or insert text area.

whenever i tried to insert token, it does not insert the token.

yes i got this

i had to change CRM/Utils/Address.php file.

there is line  $fullPostalCode .= "$fields[postal_code_suffix]"  and   now this is changed to

$fullPostalCode = "$fields[postal_code_suffix]-" . $fullPostalCode.

Thanks for reply

Glad you fixed it. If you want to do this more often you might want to create an extension for it rather than changing the core code locally?

You can check the documentation here:
http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Create+a+Module+Extension

Is it clear why this would be a more structured approach?
